A 10-m-long countercurrent-flow heat exchanger is being used to heat a liquid food from 20 to 808C. The heating medium is oil, which enters the heat exchanger at 1508C and exits at 608C. The specific heat of the liquid food is 3.9 kJ/(kg K). The overall heat-transfer coefficient based on the inside area is 1000 W/ (m2 K). The inner diameter of the inside pipe is 7 cm. a. Estimate the flow rate of the liquid food. b. Determine the flow rate of the liquid food if the heat exchanger is operated in a concurrent-flow mode for the same conditions of temperatures at the inlet and exit from the heat exchanger.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
